Translation:나는 혼자 집에 갑니다.

I switched 집에 and 혼자 and it counted it wrong. I don't think there's a difference.
Can someone please clarify once and for all: can you use 나 together with 합니다 form?
It seems so, yes. 저 as a pronoun is for socially lowering the speaker, while the -ㅂ니다 verb form raises the listener. So if the listener ranks lower than you socially (or in the workplace hierarchy), you could absolutely use -ㅂ니다 to raise them without using 저 to lower yourself (essentially signalling that you're closer to equals in the moment).
However, the Tips and Notes on the browser version notes that using 저 with -해요 verb endings "would be weird"; it's strange to lower yourself without also raising the listener (i.e. placing them above you in the social moment).
Tl;dr - you can use 나 with -ㅂ니다 but not 저 with -해요.
Shouldnt we rather learn to use 저 instead of 나 what should be informal?
